Trust God with Your Troubles

Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.—Psalm 55:22 (NIV)

Slow Down and Be of Service

Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet.—Luke 8:47 (NIV)
Jesus helped the woman who touched His robe. He was in a hurry to save Jairus’s daughter, but instead of rushing past her to get to His destination, He stopped and helped a stranger. Life is filled with split-second decisions. Reflect on how you respond to others who need your help. Open your heart and recognize that you have time to assist those that God puts in your path.
Dear Lord, help me to slow down and see the people You want me to reach out to today.

Release Your Resentment

A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger quiets contention.—Proverbs 15:18 (ESV)
How do you respond when you get angry? Do you lash out without thinking or do you push your feelings deep down inside where they fester and grow? Instead of doing either, turn to God. Share your struggles with Him. Pray for guidance on how to release your hurt feelings.
Gracious God, help me to be more merciful, to turn to You for comfort and peace and release any resentment harboring in my heart.

A Season of Stillness

Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him.—Psalm 62:5 (NLT)
Autumn, in all of its glory, is the perfect time to sit outside in nature, or by a window, and engage in the spiritual practice of being still. Use this time to embrace the calm and quiet peace of His presence. Immerse yourself in His Word.

See God’s Goodness

Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.—Psalm 27:3 (NIV)

Stay on God’s Path

And he said to me, “This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished.”—Zechariah 5:3 (NIV)
Strive to lead a life of integrity. Ask God to help you uphold His laws and remove any bad habits that are preventing you from living wholly in His grace. The closer you walk with God, the less likely you are to be tempted to stray off His path.
All-Powerful God, liberate me from temptation. Cleanse my heart!
